a Life Made Miserable

BY dyspepsia is scarcely worth the living.
A capricous appetite, heartburn, puzzling
nervous symptoms, sinking IN the abdomen
between meals, and fatulence after, are
among the successive iHdicid of this har
RAISING complaint Two things only are
needful for Its removal. A resort to Hos
tetter's Stomach Btters, and persistence in
its use. These remedial measures being
adopted, cure is certain. Taken immedi-
ately before or after meals. this great
stomachic promotes secretion of the gastric
Juice, the natural solvent OF the food. The
nervous and bilious symptoms consequent
upon chronic Indigestion disappear, as the
complaint gradually yields to the corrective
and invigorating Influence of the Bitters.
Appetite returns, sleep becomes more re-
freshipg, and as sequence, the body is
efficiently nourished, muscular power in
creasts, and the mind grows sanguine. Use
the Filters for chills and fever, and rheu-
matism,

DsEEODILS.

Sweet spring her wak'uiug kiss bestows,
And as the bunsbine sweeps tho hills,
Forth leap the golden dairodlls.
From fettors fell Of ice released,
Rush gaily of the ripping rlls,
To greet the happy dafrodils.
The bapish'd birds returned again,
With noisy note and tender trills,
Sing welcome to the daffodils.
The whispering wind In soughing slghs,
Through tallest tree-tops sobs and thrille,
Then stoops TO kiss the dafrodils.
On barren boughs the buds appear,
And drifted downy cotton fills
The yellow cups Of dafTodils.'
With gladsomo grace the maiden wears
II cir gold against her heart, and stills
Its doubts meath lovers dafTodils.

In srEAKrSa of the Knights Of Labor
and the attitude Of the Catholic Church
towards secret organizations, Cardinal
Manning is reported as saying; There
is no need of secrecy where the ends
and the methods of organization are
justifiable, and secrecy raises pre-.
sumption that there Is something
which will not bear the light of day.
As applied 10 political organizations,
this is a correct principle. The great
triumphs of human liberty have been
won in the open field, rather than In
the hiding places of conspiracy. This
truth should be kept steadily in view
in the organization of the American
Home.Rulc party.

A few days ago while enjoying q

stone, which seemed TO have been
put there TO mark some important spot
in the boundary Of the city limits. Its
location is on the line of Fifteenth
street east, and nearly on the line of G

southwesterly from little one.story
cabin inhabited by negro family.
The stone, which Is of gray sandstone.
Is some fifteen inches square and stands
two feet out Of the ground. The ele

have bruised and battered the stone SO
as TO half erase the inscription. The
